I'm scared!! Sasha is going to be spayed on Thursday and I just read about a woman who's baby, Lexi I think was her name, didn't make it past the surgery!!! I don't want to lose Sasha. I'm scared something might happen. But, at the same time, I'm having Sasha spayed at the same hospital where my neighbors took their male yorki-poo to get neutered. My neighbor was scared too but her yorki-poo, Chuckie, came out just fine. AHHHH can someone give me a success story on their yorkie?? Sasha is 8 months and weighs 4.3 lbs.:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:( |
It's scary, but most pups will be just fine and you'll be happy in the end. Your friend had good results, nothing in the world is for sure, but chances are it will all be ok. :thumbup: I've ahd Hazelnut sapyed, she was about 4 pounds at the time, no problems, couldn't even tell the next day. I've had another smaller Yorki, LOng time ago, she went through the surgery also with no ill effects. Will all say a prayer for you. |
It's understandable you are concerned but I think Sasha will be fine at her age and weight. Sophie was about 6 months old and weight about 3.50 lbs and she came out fine with the spay and having a couple teeth removed at the same time.:) |

That's about the same size and age Sadie was when she was spayed. She did fine. I was a nervous wreck. My vet did extra bloodwork before the surgery. He tried to reassure me but couldn't promise. The one thing he did say is that if she couldn't withstand a simple spay surgery there were probable underlying conditions that would surface later. You have to weigh the pros and cons and make that decision. I felt like the risk of pregnancy and everything that goes with being unspayed was far greater than the risk of the surgery. It's a decision each person has to make for themself. |
Is your vet going to do presurgery bloodwork. It is important that it be done it will show if she has any underlining problems that put her at risk when having anesthesia |
I just had one of my lil girls spayed. She is not even 4 pounds. She did really good, by the next day you really did not know she just had surgery the day befor :) The vet should do a blood test befor the surgery. I don't remember what it is called but it can help determin that anastasia (spelling?) should be safe. Good luck and Your lil girl should be just fine:animal36 |
Will the vet do bloodwork or do i need to request it?? |

Ruby was spayed at 13 months, and just under 3 lbs. with absolutely no complications. I'm sure hearing of a yorkie that didn't make it through surgery has got to be disconcerting, but remember many thousands (millions?) of small dogs have done just fine. Make certain you trust your vet, and get the necessary pre-op bloodwork. |

yea the gas wasn't too bad. Laynee had a c-section and spay at the same time and they used gas. But of course that's all my clinic will use regardless. wishing you luck and saying a prayer |
My Ariel was spayed at 7-8 months old and was 2.5lbs when I had her spayed. The vet also pulled about 7 teeth too. The spay was done by this program here called SNAP it's a free or redused cost spay neuter clinic that's mobile. I've had three others spayed and neutered with SNAP. They all came out just fine and never had and healing problems. That's why I go back! This mobile clinic does this on a daily basis and I trust them completely! My first was spayed 8 yrs. ago and the last time I took Ariel it was the same vet! I recomend this mobile clinicto everyone that lives here in SA and has bought a puppy from me. |
My yorkie, Vinny, got spayed and he turned out fine!:) Vinny is 13 years old and he is very healthy.So don't worry, I'm sure she will be OK!:aimeeyork :hearts-xx Loving Owner Of Vinny:hearts-xx |
